Overview

Gauntlet sends fantasy heroes into monster-filled dungeons, pairing cooperative fighting with a scramble for treasure. Choosing a hero, clearing a path and keeping the party moving are recurring pleasures, whether the action unfolds in a top-down maze or a larger adventure. Representative games: Gauntlet — arcade original (1985): Four different heroes can fight together through crowded dungeon mazes. Gauntlet II (1986): A ricochet power-up lets shots bounce off walls, changing how you attack through the maze. Gauntlet Legends (1998): Character levelling adds a longer growth arc to the cooperative dungeon fighting. Suitable for: Bring an appetite for fighting through crowds and making quick decisions with teammates. The shared action is about opening a route, gathering supplies and reaching the exit while monsters close in.
